My friend, Helen Appleby and I recorded a series of conversations for LinkedIn last year discussing the challenges our clients face in their Senior Leadership positions.  We received so much great feedback that I decided to release them as podcast episodes for you to experience.

Today’s show explores how our self-limiting impact every aspect of our lives.

"Uncovering the beliefs we formed when an event happened helps us right size it for who we are today .”  – Mark J. Silverman

“Some events from childhood didn’t seem traumatic at the time, still influence my thinking today.” – Helen Appleby

Even after decades of inner work, there are always more layers of the onion. Beliefs come from the “meaning we made” of things that happened in the past. Some of these “beliefs” have benefits… for a time. Coaching is a way to gain perspective on the beliefs that subconsciously run us day to day.

Helen Appleby is a British, New York based Executive Coach, Author, Speaker and Leadership Trainer who has a strong track record of leadership and commercial success. Prior to becoming a full-time coach, she was a Global Business Leader for GlaxoSmithKline where she led the $1bn Respiratory Health business in Consumer Healthcare.

Her career at GSK and Unilever spanned 6 countries and she has lived and worked in Canada, the UK, Cyprus, Dubai, Malaysia and the USA.

She is the author of “The Unwritten Rules of Women’s Leadership” book, course and podcast.
